Frequency response functions(FRF) are the most fundamental data for the frequency domain identifications of structural systems. In this paper, an improved method for estimating FRF's is presented. The new FRF estimator takes the weighted average of two conventional estimators, $H_1$(f) and $H_2$(f), utilizing the fact that $H_2$(f) gives more accurate estimate at resonance, while $H_1$(f) yields better results at antiresonances. Based on the estimated FRF's, the modal parameters of the structures, such as, natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes, are also estimated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is investigated through numerical and experimental studies. The estimated results indicate that the proposed estimator gives more accurate results than other estimators.

기계시스템의 비선형특성 해석을 위하여 여러가지 방법이 활용되고 있는데, 이들은 Nyquist 선도의 찌그러짐(distortion), Hilbert 변환, 복원력면(restoring force surface), NARMAX, 고차 주파수응답함수(higher order frequency response function), DPE(direct parameter estimation)를 이용한 방법등이다. 이들중 고차 FRF(frequency response function)는 그 개념이 선형시스템의 FRF와 유사하여 비선형시스템의 해석방법으로서 주목을 받고 있으나 아직은 고차 FRF의 특성에 대한 이론적 연구 단계이고, 고차 FRF로부터 비선형특성을 정량적으로 해석하는 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 다항식으로 표시되는 비선형성을 갖는 시스템이 정현파가진을 받을 때 그 응답의 가진주파수 성분은 가진력진폭과 고차 FRF의 무한급수로 나타낼 수 있다. 가진력의 진폭을 변화시켜가며 응답을 측정하고, 고차항을 무시하면 고차 FRF의 값을 근사적으로 구할 수 있다. 고차 FRF는 비선형 시스템의 매개변수의 식으로 나타낼 수 있으므로 이로부터 비선형 매개변수를 추정할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 비선형강성과 비선형감쇠를 갖는 1자유도 시뮬레이션 시스템에 이 매개변수 추정법을 각각 적용함으로써 이 방법의 가능성을 고찰하였다.

The characteristics of forced vibration by an external excitation force having a frequency were analyzed according to the amplitude and frequency of the excitation force. To obtain displacement, velocity, and acceleration, numerical analysis was performed to obtain the frequency response, and in particular, each FRF(Frequency Response Function) was analyzed to reveal the location of the system natural frequency and excitation frequency in the frequency domain. In the vibration model caused by external excitation, the natural frequency and distribution of the surrounding excitation mode in displacement, velocity and acceleration FRF. The FRF was also shown in the power spectrum and FRF of real and imaginary parts. The external excitation force was approximated with the excitation force of a sine wave by giving the amplitude and frequency, the mode generated by this excitation force could be distinguished. After numerical analysis by changing the equivalent mass, damping and stiffness, the forced vibration response characteristics by external excitation force were systematically analyzed.

The characteristics of forced vibration with excited sinusoidal force was introduced. Also, numerical analyses and FRF in frequency domain were performed in detail. In this regard, the responses of displacement, velocity and acceleration were investigated in a forced vibration model. The FRF characteristics in real and imaginary part around natural frequency are also discussed. This response approach of forced vibration in time domain is used for the identification and monitoring of sinusoidal forced vibration. For acquiring a displacement, velocity and acceleration, a numerical technique of Runge-Kutta-Gill method was performed. For the FRF(frequency response function), These responses are used. Also, the FRF can represent the intrinsic characteristics of the forced vibration. These performed results and analysis are successful in each damped condition for the forced vibration model. After numerical analysis of the different mass, damping and stiffness, the forced vibration response characteristics with sinusoidal force was discriminated considering its amplitude and frequency simultaneously.

A very important part in vibration analysis is to calculate the frequency response function (FRF). In general, a large sized or/and complicated structure has many thousands to millions of degrees. Therefore, the FRF cannot be calculated by the traditional analysis method using an inverse matrix. This paper presents a new FRF calculation method of a superstructure by synthesizing sub-structure modes, of which the DOF can be deduced by partitioning into some sub-structures. To confirm its analysis results, the method was applied to an assembled plate ($B300{\times}L900{\times}t5mm$) with three diagonal sub-plates($B300{\times}L300{\times}t5mm$) in series and compared with the measured data. The test results have were comparable those of the calculated ones with an error less than 5%.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency characteristics of forced vibration considering the vehicle progress. And the vibration characteristics in frequency domain that occur, when vehicle passes the bump, were analyzed. The responses such as displacement, velocity and acceleration were obtained through numerical analysis, and FFT processing was performed to analyze the frequency response function(FRF) characteristics. In particular, the location of vehicle eigenmodes and external excitation modes was clearly shown and analyzed. In the forced vibration model by external force, the behavior of the eigenmode in power spectrum and real and imaginary parts were also analyzed. The mode characteristics were also analyzed in each FRF. It was approximated by assuming total excitation force by considering the exciting frequency using impulse and sine wave forces, which can give the amplitude and frequencies. The response characteristics of forced oscillations having different mass, damping and stiffness have been systematically discussed.

One of important factors in designing array-type MEMS resonators is obtaining a desired frequency response function (FRF) within a specific range. In this paper Krylov subspace-based model order reduction using moment-matching with non-zero expansion points is represented to calculate the FRF of array-type resonators. By matching moments at a frequency around a specific range of the array-type resonators, required FRFs can be efficiently calculated with significantly reduced systems regardless of their operating frequencies. In addition, because of the characteristics of moment-matching method, a minimal order of reduced system with a specified accuracy can be determined through an error indicator using successive reduced models, which is very useful to automate the order reduction process and FRF calculation for structural optimization iterations.

In this study, an FRF-based structural damage identification method (SDIM) is proposed for plate structures. The present SDIM is derived from the partial differential equation of motion of the damaged plate, in with damages we characterized by using a damage distribution function. The appealing features of the present SDIM include the followings. First, the modal data of the damaged structure are not required. Secondly, a sufficient number of information can be generated from the measured FRFs by simply varying excitation frequencies and response measurement points. The feasibility of the present SDIM is verified through some numerically simulated damage identification tests.

The hybrid CAE/CAT methods are widely applied to product development in various fields because this method can predict the response of the whole system when a part of the system is changed. Especially, the hybrid CAE/CAT method is very useful to predict tile vehicle NVH characteristics after changing some parts of the vehicle. Target parts can be established on the basis of test models and FE models of the prototype constructed in the planning stage of car development. In this study, the topic was focused on the proper test-based FBS application process to predict vehicle NVH characteristic. First, the test-based FBS method was apply to vehicle substructure and car-body. And then the test-based model was replaced with FE model to apply hybrid CAE/CAT method. The replaced FE model was modified through the optimization process. The interior noise in vehicle during the drive was predicted with Modified FE model, then the predicted results were verified by experimenting with actual modified model.

The spectrum of impulse response signal from an impulse hammer testing is widely used to obtain frequency response function(FRF). However the FRFs obtained from impact hammer testing have not only leakage errors but also finite record length errors when the record length for the signal processing is not sufficiently long. The errors cannot be removed with the conventional signal analyzer which treats the signals as if they are always steady and periodic. Since the response signals generated by the impact hammer are transient and have damping, they are undoubtedly non-periodic. It is inevitable that the signals be acquired for limited recording time, which causes the errors. This paper makes clear the relation between the errors of FRF and the length of recording time. A new method is suggested to reduce the errors of FRF in this paper. Several numerical examples for 1-dof model are carried out to show the property of the errors and the validity of the proposed method.
